Female Birthday Card

I made a portrait A6 card base from an A4 sheet of Kraft card and used the

Fiskars Interchangable border punch along both sides of the card, adding a couple
of score lines each side of the border with my Hougie Board.

I made the flowers using funky foam by using the Fiskars flower power punch.

To give them a little bit of texture, I ran them through the embossing folder.
I attached pieces of gold thread to each of them, plus a pearl for the centre.
Then attached them to the card, added the bow and a greeting.

This is very pretty Janice and I love the Fiscars border emphasised by the lines and the funky foam makes beautiful flowers and using the gold thread for the stems and the pearls in the centres finishes them beautifully. Thank you so much for becoming a follower of my blog. x

oooooh, Janice! Such a gorgeous card. I love the happy, springy feel of your creation, and the gorgeous punched sides! The embossed "stripes" look very classy and tailored. I feel happy seeing it! hugs, de
